i have the impression, that the mouse-concept is very mac-oriented (one button, no wheel). in CMBO, after you choosed "attack" from the popup menu, it is not even posible to cancel by pressing right-mouse-button. you have to press "x-key".
IMHO there schould be a camera-key (for example "ALT" or "SPACEBAR"). when you hold the camera-key pressed, the mouse is in camera-mode:
- moving the mouse rotates(orbits) the camera
- moving the mouse + holding left button moves(pans) the camera
- moving the mouse + holding right button zooms the camera
when you relase the camera-key you are back to selecting/giving orders.
there schold be more color-coding. when choosing a target, the hit/kill % schould be displayed by colors, and not numbers only. maybe the LOS schould be colred (red=bad shot, yellow=medium, green=good shot) the same(!) colors schould be used for displaying:
- units casaulties
- units experience
- units morale
- units cover (terain, soft/hard building)
- units firepower (against soft and hard tagets)
- comander stats
...and other stuff.
well, this all has already been implemented very good in close combat 2+. the only thing in close combat, that was very good .
